One and the same service can have different names and be provided by different suppliers. As a result, this service can be displayed in the search results as several different services. For example, you have a direct contract with the Hilton hotel located in Prague. However the same hotel is sold as a part of the agreement with GTA, Hotelbeds and RoomsXML suppliers. You want all the variants for this hotel to be displayed as one offer, when searching hotels in Prague. By using GP Travel Enterprise, you can group identical services from different suppliers and display them as one offer. To do this, you should group respective hotels and specify the rules of displaying hotels of this group in contract settings.

On the Grouping tab you can configure the conditions of displaying the groups of services:

  1. Select the check box opposite the required required service. The following form appears:

2. Select one of the following options:

  • Show all offers in group: in this case all services that are included in the group are displayed on the search results page as one offer. At the same time if you click Hide offers when browsing search results, the best offer of all the offers included in the group is displayed. To see all other offers from the group, click All offers.

  • Remove duplicating offers and show only the cheapest among them: in this case, only the best offer, excluding all other hotels of the group is displayed.

  • Remove duplicating offers and show only prices from direct contracts on selfoperated hotels among them; if direct contract is missing - show all offers from consolidators.

3. For hotels, besides the basic grouping configurations, the additional form appears:

In the form, configure the conditions of displaying hotel description and adjust the mark up for self-operated products.

Display of hotel description:

  • Description of cheapest hotel in group.

  • Use custom hotel description for group of hotels; if custom hotel description is missing - use description of the cheapest hotel in a group.

  • Use custom hotel description for group of hotels; if custom hotel description is missing - do not show the whole hotel group on search results.

Mark up adjustment:

  • Select the Adjust mark up check box.

  • Set the values for mark up adjustment.

4. Click Save.
